"All the best stories in the world are but one story in reality -- the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape."
--Author Christopher Benson

Please check out my reviews of 2 other books I reviewed last week.
 The Missing Element: A James Becker Mystery The Missing Element by John L. Bettcher (includes Q & A with the author) and Sophie Redesigned: A Sophie and Sam MysteryShophie Redesigned .  I love them both and gave them each 5 stars and these books are as different as night and day.  
Someone just commented today about my eclectic reading habits and I guess they are right.  I read everything, mysteries, cozy and thrillers most of the time, but also like Contemporary Fiction, Woman's Fiction and Christian Fiction and Non-Fiction.  I really like reading books set in my home state of Wisconsin or written by Wisconsin authors.  I leave the paranormal  and sci-fi to my daughters and most of the fantasy unless something really catches me at the right time.  I am just thrilled that there are so many authors writing so many different genres, everyone can find books that they enjoy to read.

I hope you have a great week reading and remember there are many great books due for release next Tuesday, June 1, and I'll only be reviewing a few, so be sure to check your favorite place to get books, you may even want to pre-order a few. 
HAPPY READING!!!


NOTE:  Glitches today with the book pictures have forced me to use the purchase links from Amazon.
